Shyam Benegal, a name that pioneered the word ''art cinema''
in Bollywood, makes his uncharacteristic presence this year
with humorously filled fun-fare WELCOME TO SAJJANPUR. After
making two successful musical outings with A.R Rehman (ZUBEIDAA
(2001) and BOSE-THE FORGOTTEN HERO (2005), he picks up a characteristically
traditional composer Shantanu Moitra for this rustic comical
love saga. Expectations!!! Certainly not big or gigantic but
surely it promises something amusing and pleasing for the
listeners who desires melody and fun in each soundtrack. Will
Shantanu Moitra's music be as pleasing as PARINEETA or playful
as LAGE RAHO MUNNABHAI? Let's check this out!
KK (credited as Krishan Kumar) sings out jocularly a cherubic
number ''Sita Ram Sita Ram'' that comes with rustically traditional
paced melodic works. Shantanu Moitra makes quizzical moves
by initiating it with ''rhythm and blue'' guitar strumming
mixed with traditional classical instrumentals in serenading
out a satirical feel. This entirely catchy ''UP-Bihar'' based
folksy number is well penned by Ashok Mishra and reminds of
a popular Rajesh Khanna's lively number ''Dakiya Dak Laya''
(PALKON KI CHAON MEIN (1977) and to large extent ''Dhadak
Dhadak'' (BUNTY AUR BABLI (2005) for its chirpy wordings.
KK delivers out a knock-out performance by articulating it
with ''Awadhi'' stylized lingo that is likely to be benchmarking
out film's comical feel to the viewers. It's ''remix'' version
in a typical ''club-house'' version and it comes out as marketing
gesture to lure prospective viewers and well be adding glitz
and gloss in the promotion of the film.
Mohit Chauhan is getting refined and improvised with every
passing day and it is clearly evident in this sentimentally
pristine soundtrack ''Ek Meetha Marz De Ke''. Kudos to lyricist
Swanand Kirkire for showing his lyrical flare in poetically
elegiac wordings like ''Is khatt mein jo siyahi hai, sun mere
aanson se bani hai?'' This tender paced ballad progresses
with fine blend of poetic touches and it gets mellifluously
complemented with equally serene vocals of Sadhana Sargam.
This delectably supple track falls in the cadre of ''Piyu
Bole'' (PARINEETA) that will be appreciating ''love chemistry''
on silver screen and will be getting added in the collection
of class listeners.
Shantanu Moitra maintains his classy touches and remarkable
form in third consecutive track ''Bheeni Bheeni Mehki Mehki''
by reliving the tranquility of his lovable numbers like ''Soona
Soona Man Ka Aangan'' (PARINEETA). KK makes second laudable
vocal toil with amiable support of angelic sounding Shreya
Ghoshal in subtle undertones. It's also two in a row for talented
Swanand Kirkire's lyrical potential that strikes chord with
the subtlety of the romantic situation. KK delivers out a
breather and well be acknowledged for his versatility that
is well conceptualized in this beautiful composition.
